  • - This means your control will be placed above the control over which you are hovering. You’ll see this icon when you drag the control over the top half of a droppable area. 
  • - This means your control will be placed below the control over which you are hovering. You’ll see this icon when you drag the control over the bottom half of a droppable area.
  • - This means your control will be placed to the right of the control over which you are hovering. You’ll see this icon when you drag the control over the right half of another control.
  • - This means your control will be placed to the left of the control over which you are hovering. You’ll see this icon when you drag the control over the left half of another control.
  • - If you are hovering over a group control--tab, panel, table, section or repeat--this means your control will be placed inside the group control if there are no other controls inside of it.  (If other controls already are inside your group control, you’ll see the , , and icons as you hover over any controls inside your group control so you can govern exactly where inside the group control your new control will go.)

  • If you let go of a control while the icon is showing, your control will go back to where it was—either back to the Palette or where it was in your form before you tried to move it.  
  • You can drag/drop above, below, to the left and right of most controls.
  • You can drop controls above and below the Section, Tab, Table, Repeat and Panel . group controls.
  • Panels can be dropped to the left or right of other panels, however. However, you cannot drop other controls in a similar manner to the left/right of panels.
  • You can never drop two different controls into a repeat control—for example, you cannot drag in a quantity control if your repeat control already contains an email control. If you need multiple controls inside a repeat control, first drag the controls into a section, then drop the section into the repeat. Once the section is inside your repeat you may not add anything else to the section, so build the section first in this case. You also may never drop a panel, tab or another repeat control inside a repeat control, nor may you drag in trigger, video, image or link controls. See Repeats for more details. Note that repeat items automatically generated from a schema may not be dragged outside the repeat control since this would violate the constraints imposed by the schema.
